U.S. exchanges will be closed in observance of Good Friday.

U.S. exchanges will be closed in observance of Good Friday and those in Europe will also be closed for Easter Monday. However, it will mark an interesting trading day on Friday with markets digesting labor-market data for March that could help to provide further evidence that the American economy is clawing back from the worst pandemic in over a century.

Good Friday is a quirky holiday for financial markets in the U.S. because Good Friday isn’t a federal holiday.

Those include Columbus Day and Veterans Day, which are federal holidays but aren’t vacation days for Wall Street.
